Well, if you're truly a glutton for punishment, you could have
billing-code-specific print queues.

Thanks, but that really won't help. We need to be able to link each
printing job to a specific billing code, and user. Each user needs to
be able to work on multiple billing codes.

My company would like to start capturing printing costs. Is there a way
to configure the printing interface to prompt users for a billing code?
The best thing is to assign a username/password that identify a user and
then use a system like pykota[1]+cups to bill per user.
Prompting a user requires some binary running on the client plus some
way to communicate to this binary from the server when it receives a
print request (another method is an authorization system through a web
interface that you must go through before any print). This makes up a
complex system to maintain and cumbersome to use.
Simo.
